A flat, uniform board, which has mass 3.60kg and a length 0.50m, is held in a horizontal orientation by two vertical ropes. One rope is attached at the left end of the board and the other rope is attached at a point (3/4)L from the left end of the board. What force does the rope on the right exert of the board?
Let the tensions be TL and TR
TL + TR = 3.6*g = 3.6*9.8 ( force balance)
Torque balance
TL*L/2 = TR(L/4)
2TL = TR
From the two equtions we get
3TR/2 = 3.6*9.8 = 23.52N

A uniform bar of length 3.2m and mass 4.4kg is attached to a
wall through a hinge mechanism which allows it to rotate freely.
The other end of the bar is supported by a rope of length 5.7m
which is also connected to the wall as shown above. What force in N
does the wall exert horizontally on the bar through the hinge?
(Consider a force to the right positive and a force to the left
negative.) see image below....
A uniform board of length 2.40 m and mass 4.00 kg is pivoted at
one end and has a rope attached at the other end, as shown in the
figure below. A bucket of mass 2.00 kg is suspended 40.0 cm from
the rope. Find: (a) the tension in the rope; (b) the horizontal and
vertical forces exerted by the pivot.
3. A solid, thin, uniform rod (length- 1.50m & mass-2.30kg) is atached to a frictionless hinge at one end, w end. A horizontal force (F) applied to the other end of the rod rotates it until the attached rope is vertical and the tension in the rope is 35.0N. In this orientation, the angle between the rod and the ground is 25° a. Calculate the gravitational torque exerted on the rod. b. Determine the torque due to the force, F....
A) A 11 m long board is held up at the two ends by a rope. A 45 kg box sits 3 m from the left end. Find the tension in the rope on the right. B) A 11 m long board that has a mass of 14 kg is held up by two ropes. The left rope is 4 m from the left end of the board, and the other rope is 2 m from the right end of...
A uniform plank of length 2.00 m and mass 34.0 kg is supported by three ropes, as indicated by the blue vectors in the figure below. Find the tension in each rope when a 685–N person is d = 0.500 m from the left end. magnitude of T1 N magnitude of T2 N magnitude of T3 N A person stands on a horizontal 2.00 m long plank a distance d from the left end. The plank is supported by three...
A metal rod of length 76 cm and mass 1.79 kg has a uniform cross-sectional area of 7.7 cm2. Due to a nonuniform density, the center of mass of the rod is 22.2 cm from the right end of the rod. The rod is suspended in a horizontal position in water by ropes attached to both ends (the figure). (a) What is the tension in the rope closer to the center of mass? (b) What is the tension in the...
Problem 1: A uniform thin rod is held by one end and left to
oscillte with a period T=1.38 seconds. The end from which the rod
is suspended does not move, and no other mass is attached to the
rod. What is the lengh L of this rod in meters? 0.4732247 IS NOT
THE ANSWER.
A uniform thin rod is held by one end and left to oscillate with a period T = 1.38 seconds. The end from which the...
A uniform bar of length 3.7 m and mass 4.8 kg is attached to a wall through a hinge mechanism which allows it to rotate freely. The other end of the bar is supported by a rope of length 5.1 m which is also connected to the wall as shown above. What force in N does the wall exert vertically on the bar through the hinge? (Consider an upward force as positive and a downward force as negative.)
A 3.00-m-long, 140-N, uniform rod at the zoo is held in a horizontal position by two ropes at its ends in (Figure 1). The left rope makes an angle of 150° with the rod and the right rope makes an angle 9 with the horizontal. A 90- N howler monkey (Alouatta seniculus) hangs motionless 0.50 m from the right end of the rod as he carefully. Make a free-body diagram of the rod. Draw the vectors starting at the black dots. The...
A woman with mass m is standing on a platform and holding onto a light rope attached to a hook in the ceiling. A second rope, also attached to the hook, is being held by a man with larger mass M on a second platform. The ropes are the same length, and the ropes are initially horizontal. The two people start from rest and swing toward each other. They meet at the lowest point of their swings, and grab onto...
